Roo or Hen? 6 week Easter Eggers

[LazytownChick]

I bought a pair of easter eggers from a local garden store when they were 2 days old but they're about 6 weeks now. The owner said there was a 5% chance they might be roosters. I think the darker one might be a rooster. Any thoughts?

Nothing showing cockerel status that I can see so far.

What causes your suspicion?

It acts differently than our other chickens. It'll stand up straight and scan around the area while they're eating. It also chest bumps the other one and will also jump at our hands and feet. I don't know if it's just playing or if it's a show of dominance.

Anyone else have any thoughts?

2 Pretty Pullets ... The chest bumping & stuff is "Peck Order" stuff.

Still a smidgen early to know for sure, but I'm not seeing anything that screams cockerel. Pullets spar every bit as much as cockerels.

Please wait a week or two. I don't see any obvious boys though.
